It is a big responsibility to be the center of Texas, but, someone has to do it, and Temple has! From the beginning of its history, Temple centered itself around the railroad and commerce. The establishment of major industries such as Baylor Scott and White Health, McLane’s World Headquarters, Walmart Distribution Center, Wilsonart International, and many more have provided incredible variety for those who call Temple “home”. Driving through and around the city will provide a glimpse of the growth taking place in Temple. The city has embraced many new industries to join the established, and it continues to change everyday! Take time to visit the local parks, hike/bike trails, shops, and restaurants (this also includes a variety of food trucks), or catch a play at the Cultural Activity Center. No matter what you're looking for, Temple opens itself to you! Regardless if Temple is a permanent home or home for a brief time, be a part of the community and the community will become a part of you!
